Four SATA 6.0Gb/s ports for internal storage

The Syba SI-PEX40156 adds four SATA III connections through a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot using an ASMedia 1064 chipset. It is a non-RAID controller intended for builders who need more internal drive ports without hardware RAID functionality. The card supports bootable SATA ports and Native Command Queueing for improved drive responsiveness.

Low-profile bracket and hot-swap support

A standard bracket and a low-profile bracket are included so the card fits full-height or slim chassis. The 19-inch SATA cables supplied reach typical motherboard-to-drive distances. Hot plug and hot swap capability means drives can be exchanged without powering down, while Port Multiplier support allows additional drives per port.

Check slot and firmware compatibility

Verify the system has a free PCIe x1 or larger slot running at version 1.0 or 3.0. UEFI firmware is required for boot support; legacy BIOS-only boards may not recognise drives attached to this card. No RAID arrays can be created, so users needing redundancy must rely on software solutions.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the PCIe 3.0 x1 interface cap the four SATA 6.0Gb/s ports to in practice?

The PCIe 3.0 x1 lane provides roughly 8 Gb/s usable throughput, so the four 6.0Gb/s ports share that ceiling and cannot all run at full speed simultaneously.

Which brackets are supplied so the card fits both full-height and low-profile cases?

The box includes a standard bracket and a low-profile bracket; swap the metal bracket on the card to match your chassis height.

How is the ASMedia 1064 driver installed, and what step do people often miss?

Run the setup from the included driver CD before connecting drives; many users plug the drives in first and then find the ports invisible to the OS.
